[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is there a good reason for me to vote *for* question A? I'm inclined to vote NO for both A and B. I don't see why it should require a unanimous vote. That's just going to cause the council to reject anything that might lead to more moderates on the council.[/quote] The status quo is that increasing property tax revenue requires a unanimous vote. Question A would change what can be increased from revenue to the rate. Limiting revenue growth to inflation doesn't make sense to me - I want better public services and I want public employees to be able to afford to live here when property values go up.[/quote] PP here. What? I didn't realize that. There's a revenue cap now? How does that even work with assessments changing? Is the cap on a county-wide basis, or for a particular home? Either way, that makes no sense. I'll definitely vote for A then.[/quote]
